[jboss-dev] 1' hornetq delay on first boot

[Bill Burke]

Yet another reason why we need a developer profile for app server and 
ditch default/ and all/ and delete minimal/.  Turn all/ into 
production/, and default/ into developer/.  Tune production for 
security, runtime speed.  Strip down developer/ for boot speed and 
distro size.

For a HornetQ developer profile should have very small, precreated 
journal files.  For the production profile, it should be optimized for 
"out-of-box" benchmarks (and security).
